Random Curiosities: I Wonder Why ...

Post by MaxPC »

Thought I'd start a thread for things about which we're curious but have no real category for asking.

I wonder why we see multiple posts in a row from the same member in any given thread?

Internet hiccup?
Computer hiccup?
Brain hiccup?
The dog or cat hiccupped?
The Russians?
The Aliens?
Gnomes or fairies?

I wonder why you think it's important to start threads to make sure that people know who annoys you. I wonder why that seems to be one of your favorite subjects. I wonder what that does for the atmosphere here.

I wonder if you think that makes you look more spiritual.

Is it biblical? Is it Christlike? Is it loving? Is it true? How can I find out?

Some people just like to have online conversations with themselves. If there are others around, it might look less strange than having that conversation out loud.

that's me! ..
mostly, i feel no one reads what i write, anyway, and it's 'way better than sitting alone.
i enjoy reading everyone else's stuff. that makes me think of things. real people out there.

i don't worry about looking strange.
thankfully, our parents taught us to be prepared to be different.
at this point in history, i truly value those messages -
trying to pass them along to my family.

it appears an awful lot of people have no idea what it is to be a little different.
Jesus counseled to be prepared to not fit in. it's not the easy path. not in every moment.

Most or all of this drama, humiliation, wasted taxpayer money could be spared -
with even modest attempt at presenting balanced facts from the start.

Yep, that's exactly what I'm talking about. My same post appeared twice. When I found it, the opportunity to delete the 2nd one was no longer available.

Must be the Russians :laugh

I wonder why tools are so hard to find when we're finished with a task?

Indoors I'll lay a tool down and can't find it again.

Outdoor tools I've started wrapping in a bright orange tape because the leaves on the ground make them difficult to find.

Is it pesky gnomes, elves, fairies or Russians hacking my brain?

If a tool company wants to increase sales they should create highly visible colors for their tools: aging baby-boomers would snap them up (and the boomers are younger than I am) :laugh

Ah, but not really, because then they’d not have as many repeat customers. ;)
It’s a wonder they don’t all do camo!
